| Preparing for Emergency Situations. | In progress |
| Prepositioning of supplies in preparation for a hurricane under potential destruction of prepositioned supplies | A sensitivity analysis was conducted to test the impact of the parameters on our model on three outcomes: total expected costs, number of selected supply points and level of storage of the main distribution area( use of CPLEX to solve the model |
| Project training evaluation: Reshaping boundary objects and assumptions | Comparison of data coming from case studies with current theory and the ability to create novel ideas and new theory from the data itself.Next, open-ended questionnaires explored differences in perceptions pertaining to knowledge, learning, culture, and the nature of organisations, and the role of information for project communication and coordination. For each word, (knowledge, learning, data, information, culture, organization etc.) respondents were asked to give their definition and then use the word in a sentence demonstrating their interpretation. |
| Proposing 'the burns suite' as a novel simulation tool for advancing the delivery of burns education. | Questionnaire scores were cumulated as means, and parametrical analysis was used (unpaired t-test) to compare experts’ and novices’ ratings |
| Psychological Effects of Disaster Relief Activities on Japan Ground Self-Defense Force Personnel Following the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake. | Associations between outcome variables and independent variables (age, gender, military rank, length of deployment, and exposure to dead bodies) were measured with univariate analyses and subsequent multiple logistic regression analyses. |
| Public Health System Research in Public Health Emergency Preparedness in the United States (2009—2015): Actionable Knowledge Base. | The authors identified themes during article analysis and summarized overall findings by theme. The authors determined level of confidence in the findings with the GRADE-CERQual . |
| REACT: A paraprofessional training program for first responders-A pilot study. | Statistical analysis (ANOVA, GLM) |
| Reconstruction and Exploration of Large-scale Distributed Operations – Multimedia tools for Evaluation of Emergency Management Response | The notes from the diary and the video documentation were scrutinized by an evaluator. Similar data were initially clustered and successively formed into categories displaying certain aspects of the use of R&E and F-REX. |
| Relationships Between Mental Health Distress and Work-Related Factors Among Prefectural Public Servants Two Months After the Great East Japan Earthquake. | Chi-square test.We investigated relationships between mental health distress (defined as K6.13) and work-related variables (i.e., job type, overwork, and working environment) stratified by level of earthquake damage experienced.Software: Stata 12.0 for Windows (StataCorp LP, College Station, TX). |
| Research on Efficiency of Collaborative Allocation System of Emergency Material Based on Synergetic Theory | qualitative simulation technology-QSIM algorithm |
